As there had been no let up in our Siberian conditions, and the fact I’ve got work tomorrow, me and the lad decided to go to see Scarborough at home. Good job we did too – they absolutely pulvorized their opponents 8 (eight) – 0 (nil) today. They also had a man sent off after about 75 minutes for a late lunge (6-0 at this point) – to be fair it wasn’t a dirty game.
Its amazing the support that turns out to see the Seadogs, there was apparently 559 there today with no noticeable visitors fans either.Someone even told me he loved Queensgate more than the McCain because the bar and facilities were better.
8-0 was a new record for the new Scarborough team, and to be honest they deserved more today.
My lad even said, “why don’t we go to their away games when Brid are at home, at least we see some goals and wins.” There has to be a bedtime bullsh*t story coming up, about supporting your team through thick and thin, and its not about the winning all the time (though it helps etc etc), its about belonging to your home town team etc etc……
As for the Brid result, I can only offer my sincerest sympathies to those that traveled all the way there today to see us get thumped (and there were a few that did). A good 6 hour round trip for that – sadism.
